Creating the Foundation for Success

Did you know that not only in Spain but also in Australia there is a place called Malaga? No? Not a problem - as long as your master data knows the difference. Otherwise things might get expensive. After all, correct master data is the basis for smooth and successful business processes. In particular, international companies are confronted with the challenges of Master Data Management and Master Data Governance on a daily basis. Incorrect or inconsistent master data can slow down or even stop business processes. This is not only a financial but also an operational risk, which must be countered in advance with smart concepts and measures. Our Data Asset Services ensure that the management of data in companies is focused on quality and security right from the start.

Challenges with Master Data

The majority of organizations already gain master data on their suppliers, customers and products, but a considerable number are still struggling with it, creating problems with real business impact.  Four challenges related to MDM are:

Procurement: Lack of transparency and duplicated data hinder supplier selection and rationalization, leading to shortages and delays in receiving supplies and supply chain disruptions.
Supply Chain: Duplicated materials and products​ cause inefficient demand planning, wrong indicators falsify fright declarations. This increases costs and delays shipping along the supply chain.
Financials: Multiple duplicates and outdated payment information are main causes for inconsistent financial master data across enterprises and lead to delays in receiving and sending payments and increases risk of non-compliance to IFRS**​
Sales Effectiveness: Lack of transparent and duplicate data across organization hinder automated sales processes. These weak spots have to be processed manually and therefore increase duration and costs.
